JLL Income Property Trust WELL Health-Safety Ratings Bolster Environmental Commitment

CHICAGO, April 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- JLL Income Property Trust, an institutionally managed daily NAV REIT (NASDAQ: ZIPTAX; ZIPTMX; ZIPIAX; ZIPIMX) with approximately $7 billion in portfolio assets, announced it has earned the WELL Health-Safety Rating for 31 properties within its broadly diversified portfolio through the International WELL Building Institute ("IWBI"). The total represents a 55% year-over-year increase in properties that received ratings.

"We're proud to have earned WELL Health-Safety ratings at 31 of our properties," said Allan Swaringen, President and CEO of JLL Income Property Trust. "These ratings provide third-party validation of our commitment to making the spaces our tenants live and work in healthier, safer places, which is paramount in today's environment. We look forward to the continued increase of WELL Health-Safety rated properties in our portfolio."

"Creating safe environments for our tenants and having emergency preparedness programs in place is a critical piece of mitigating risk and preserving value across our entire portfolio," said Elena Alschuler, Head of Sustainability for LaSalle, the advisor to JLL Income Property Trust. "We believe WELL Health-Safety ratings are a key piece of that strategy."

"LaSalle is a global leader in real estate assets," said Jessica Cooper, Chief Product Officer, IWBI. "In achieving the WELL Health-Safety Rating for multiple properties across North America, LaSalle is showcasing leadership to scale the impact of health and well-being where people spend most of their time. IWBI congratulates LaSalle for achieving the rating and extending health benefits across the U.S. and Canada."

The WELL Health-Safety Rating provides a centralized source and governing body to validate efforts made by owners and operators. It leverages insights drawn from the IWBI Task Force on COVID-19, in addition to guidance on the spread of COVID-19 and other respiratory infections developed by the World Health Organization, U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, global disease control and prevention centers and emergency management agencies. The process also incorporates recognized standard-making associations such as ASTM International and ASHRAE, and leading academic and research institutions, as well as core principles already established by IWBI's WELL Building Standard, the premier framework for advancing health in buildings and spaces of all kinds.

The WELL Health-Safety Ratings further JLL Income Property Trust's already robust ESG program.
